Profile:
Yet another of the one Test brigade, Swamy represented India against
New Zealand in the first Test between the two countries. On the docile
Fateh Maidan wicket, it was an uphill task for a new medium pacer and
in the two innings he bowled 18 overs, finished with no wicket for 45
and did not get a chance to bat. He did not play for the country again
but represented the Services throughout the fifties and took 68
wickets (22.16) in his first class career. (Partab Ramchand
